No it's true not rumours. You people weren't around back then that deny this. Kubo got tons of outrage on his Twitter page from JP fans mostly. It was a big deal and manga readers from then saw it all
Ichigo being the cousin of Ganju and Kukakku is amazing to me. Like they helped him out so much in the Soul Society arc, that they became good friends and now it's revealed they're actually family!
@@StruckByBelz Nor i. But why is the Shiba clan full of people who are just studs.(I want to say minus Ganju, but Ganju just doesn't take care of himself really-)
You’re one of the few that realized that was Hiyori’s captain from the Turn Back The Pendulum arc that’s the benefit of watching the series so recently.
@@toshiozukum5363 I mean but the thing is though, they thought he died. Not often you would think a dead character just rises back up... but then again it does happen
The Shiba clan was one of the noble clans in the past, so it's entirely possible that they held the duty of ejecting squad zero to the royal palace. Another thing is that if you remember they said that Kaien looks like Ichigo, which makes alot more sense if they're cousins since he's also from the Shiba clan. Isshin been hiding alot of secrets.
For those who don't know, yes, squad 0 were mentioned in the original anime and manga and the reason why ginjo and tsukishima are still alive is because they were killed by a zanpakuto so their souls passed on, in soul society
Yep, so they are basically dead. Because Bleach tackles the topic of afterlife people usually have a possibility to come back. We rarely see it, so most of us forget that this is an actual thing.
Souls in general go the the soul society usually, not just those cleansed by a zapakuto. Zanpakuto are made for sending hollows (and ghosts) to the soul society. I mean, I guess they could've gone to hell but maybe they weren't considered that bad.
The anime actually cut out quite a bit of useful information in the conversation ichigo was having with mayuri. Mayuri explains more about broken bankai's especially regarding ikkaku, renji and komamura. Here's what Mayuri said "Naturally there are exceptions. Komamura Sajin's bankai, Kokujou Tengen Myouou has an extremely powerful bond with its wielder. As a result, any damage to the bankai is reflected as wounds on the user's body. A great disadvantage. However, in return once the user's wounds are healed, the bankai itself is also restored. But this is the only exception I have thus far found. As for the bankai of Madarame Ikkaku, which was destroyed during his battle with Adrad Liones it seems that Akon was able to forcibly restore it original shape but is possess but a fraction of it's original power." Then Ichigo asks about Renji's bankai "I heard his bankai was destroyed in his battle with byuakuya?" To which Mayuri responds "Have you ever counted the individual sections of his bankai form? Those sections of Hihiou Zabimaru that were destroyed by Kuckiki Byakuya remain destroyed to this day"
@@dianeemaleu2697 Yeah he supervises all the cut content so I’m assuming he took it out In order to add additional scenes later on since they’re on limited episodes but regardless I think people would’ve just not really cared for the information as much it would’ve been nice to see it added though
Well renjis zanpaktou will be explained by ichibe later so it's understandable that was cut. Muyuri doing all of that exposition at once isn't all that necessary especially given what's next.
Kaien and the girl with the canon Kukaku and Ganju are not commoners, they are part of the Shiba family, one of the four noble families in Bleach like the Kuchiki family or the Shihoin family (Yoruichi), Ichigos dad Isshin was a Shiba too and a Captain, if you think about it they used to always mention how similar Ichigo looked to Kaien, even Ukitake is shocked at how similar Ichigo looks to Kaien when he first seems him at the bridge when trying to rescue Rukia, at the time it was just weird, but it was Kubo actually foreshadowing the fact that they are related all along
The correct name is the Five Noble Families. With the fall of the Shiba family, there are now four noble families: Kuchiki, Shihoin, and Tsunayashiro families. The rest of the families have not yet been revealed.
So, if Isshin is Kukkaku's uncle, that makes Ichigo, Kukkaku, Ganju and Kaien all cousins, now we know why Kaien and Ichigo were so alike. Also the Shiba clan was part of the great noble families, just like the kuchikis until they got expelled after Kaien's death, so kukkaku is not just a random. That also explains Ichigo high reiatsu (in addition with all his mixed natures), as noble families are born with much higher reiatsu than others.
The purpose of the Zero Squad is to Protect only the Soul King and they will not interfere with any threats in Soul Society. They are like body guards and its not in their duty to interfere with other problems that doesn't concern the safety of the Soul King.
Indeed , even though here with the benefits of hindsight it was dumb since getting rid of the Quincy sooner would have helped the zero Squad protect the king. Surprising decision by ichibei who is wise
Back in SS arc Byakuya had said something along the lines of it being a miracle for a child of one of the 4 great noble families to achieve Bankai in response to Ichigo claiming he did it 😅
guys don't forget the shiba family is one of the 5 nobles families who founded soul society besides the kuchiki, shihoin, tsoyanashiro ( revealed in the cfyow novel ) and the last one still unknown
something that was taken out of Mayuri's conversation about broken bankai, is the revelation that both Renji's and Ikkaku's bankais are broken as well. Akon put Ikkaku's bankai back together but it's not as powerful, and renji's is still working as intended but there are segments that have been destroyed
and also the fact that Komomura's bankai is the only one that mayuri knows of that can heal itself since they share the damage taken between each other since they have a powerful bond together
@@johkerx9107 I don't remember being mentioned in that specific speech but Toshiro's Bankai makes sense because his powers is only to control ice/freeze so the wings on his back and the body of the dragon are not a part of his actual sword. He can basically pick whatever body of water and turn into Hyourinmaru
Renji's Bankai still working as intended but some segments are destroyed was stupid considering his Bankai completely shattered into tiny pieces when he fought Byakuya. So the whole explanation just make it more inconsistent given it doesn't apply to everyone.
Just a thing abut Kukkaku Shibe - the girl who said Isshin is her uncle. She is not a random commoner, she is the head of the Shiba family - one of the 4 great noble houses, like Byakuya's Kuchiki house. That was mentioned back in the anime. More additional info will be revealed in the future too.
BTW, in the manga, when Mayuri said that destroyed Bankai cannot be fixed. He also mentioned that Ikkaku's Bankai is destroyed on his fight with the Arrancar Edrad. The reason why he didn't use it in his next fights
Ikkakus bankai was not destroyed. It was able to be forcibly restored to its original shape by Akon but only at a fraction of its power. And it also mentioned how sections of renji's bankai are missing ever since byakuya broke pieces of it and that komamura bankai is the only one that can heal itself after being broken since he shares the damage the zanpakuto takes
Remember that the Fullbrings are humans, so when they die, they go to the soul society. Kukakku mentioned this episode that she picked them up off the streets of the Rukon district (aka where all the souls go). Also good job picking up the Kirio was the former captain of Kisuke's squad. Only people ive seen that have 😄😄
Guys... you have to see the poem pieces at the very end of each episode, including this one. It adds to essence of what Kubo is trying to convey to us through his work and what we can perceive regarding the next episode. Bleach is an anime with many subtle features that make all the difference in the buildup of the show. This is one of them...
Guys remember Aizen referred to Ichigos Dada as Shiba Isshin in the Arrancar arc when he appeared . And Also remeber someone telling that the 4 Royal Families Were "KUCHIKI, SHIBA, SHIHOIN & iSE "
In regards to ginjo and tsukishima, you kept asking if they're dead. Yes they're dead, where do you end up after you die? The soul society, that's where they are. Just wanted to add another point of contention you had in regards to grimmjow, he never died. If you'll recall after his defeat to Ichigo he stood back up and wanted to keep fighting but Ichigo refused and that's when nnoitora struck him in the shoulder/neck area and then as nnoitora tried to finish him off Ichigo protected him. Nnoitora then called grimmjow pathetic for being rescued by a soul reaper and that was the last we saw of him. Everyone just kind of assumed he died cause we never saw him after that but he never actually died.
The relation between ichigo and kukkaku was foreshadowed since the 17th episode when byakuya said “I understand rukia this child looks a lot like “him” referring to kaien
Fun fact that isn't so fun: Byakuya was supposed to die at this part in the manga but the author Tite Kubo received so many death threats from "fans" that he decided to keep Byakuya alive
@@StruckByBelz I wouldn't say that's a fun fact. I've never actually seen any evidence that back that up. Anime fans do have a tendency to start rumer with no evidence.
22:18 Being half Soul Reaper & half Quincy is rare because Soul Reapers & Quincy’s are enemies. Remember Yamamoto had that whole war with them & killed a bunch of them lol. And throughout the show Uryu is pretty prideful about being a Quincy & brings it up multiple times that Quincy’s aren’t suppose to work with soul reapers & hollows.
Also quincies are just humans with powers that live in the world of the living, while soul reapers are essentially immortal so a relationship would be akin to a mortal man being with an elf from LOTR
7:41 Hey great memory! Not a lot of people remember that but in Turn Back the Pendulum they very briefly mention Captain Hikifune who was promoted to the Zero Squad and now they needed a new replacement for her. This pink haired chubby lady is her, she's Captain Hikifune. Good job.
10:10 when dude said Unohana shouldn't be healing, he was implying that she should be bringing the smoke. Shes one of the OG savage killers along with Yamamoto.
Also, y’all were some of the few that hit the nail on the head of so many things in this episode. As a manga reader, It’s so interesting to watch people figure this stuff out.
Man I can’t wait for you guys to see the twists and reveals coming in the upcoming episodes. The mini arc “everything but the rain” coming up is a fantastic arc
I lost my shit finding out Kūkaku & Ganju are Ichigos cousins!!! Ganju my dawg 🤣 also I don't read manga so I also lost my shit seeing the fullbringers! It's as soon as Kūkaku said "make uncle sad" she immediately started to resemble Ichigo 🤣 Even Ganju look just like Isshin. Got me about to go back & watch OG bleach to see how much they look alike back then 🤣
You are right as a manga reader this info is something I expected but for ppl without reading the manga there is definitly a lot info and lore stuff. To add about Ginjo and Tsukushima they were humans who died by a Zanpaktou so they souls went to Soul Sociaty, and Kukaku says in the episode she found them in Rukon Disctrict
I won’t say who but it’s very easy to tell who was behind the curtain when you see the hole and outfit and the combine that with the sword when they killed the Quincy with
We have been given sneak peeks way back to when Rukia was brought back by Byakuya and Renji about Ichigo's connection to Kaien, their similarities, Ukitake's reaction when he saw Ichigo. And Byakuya saying it's impossible to achieve Bankai so easily if he's a commoner, and here we are lol, knowibg Ichigo's from a previous noble clan
Shiba clan were said to be originally the ones to attain/discover bankai first, when it was during the soul society arc and ichigo was training for it is when it was said. That's why it was so natural for him to obtain., and that's why Byakuya was so surprised by the speed that he got it. Ichigo's father was the previous head of the Shiba clan house.
22:18 about this,this is not explained in the manga, but kubo was asked about something related to this (I won’t mention what specifically since it’s a spoiler) and he said that it is usually impossible for a shinigami and a human to have a child together, but urahara came up with a way to make it possible for ichigo’s dad/mom . That’s why there aren’t many people who are mixed shinigami and mixed something else
I haven't read the Manga but I don't know of you noticed that the eyes of the soul Kong are the same as aizen with hogyoku. That's because in the flash back from the arrancar ark that aizen took a little of the soul kings spiritual energy that was residing inside of Rangyku
those eyes are iris soul king has 4 iris and someone will get to his level just a bit below the iris plays a major role in showing what level and power the owner at that time have and can do shit with it
Yep. Squad Zero was mentioned once. It was in the past arc, where Urahara became the captain of squad 12, And Hiyori was the Lieutenant. It was said that the former Captain got promoted to squad 0(The pink haired lady)
As you guys already figured out, yes that was grimmjow they show part of his torso so we could see his hollow hole in his abs and his scar in his chest the scar ichigo gave him with a getsuga tenshou
12:16 i saw in another reactor's comment section that because they were killed by zanpakto's they got sent to the soul society cause I was just as surprised as you too...now that I think about it, remember we were also told this by rukia in ep1 or 2 I think about cutting hollows with zanpakto's, I didn't think it would've worked on those guys but I guess it makes sense
The person in the curtain behind Inoue and Sado when Urahara was calling is Grimmjow, Espada #6 . The VA's voice is unmistakable and if you pay attention, you can see the hole below his abs. Kukaki Shiba, the woman who transports Squad Zero out of the Sereitei was talking to Ginjo and Tsukishima; the two fullbring users killed by Ichigo and Byakuya in episode 365 & 366.
Back in the early Soul Society arc, Ichigo and Ganju the sand guy really had that strong dynamique from the first moment they met. It was always funny banters between them. Often time going at each other's neck like real brother/cousin of the same age
The anime pacing is the same as it's been thus far but these are chapters where Kubo introduced a lot of plot points in each chapter. It's a very fast-paced story structure it has right now.
And yes, this part of the manga did go by pretty fast. Granted there was some more comedy stuff with Kon, the talk about bankais, as well as some Tenjiro stuff. But yeah, this Episode in relation to the manga is pretty accurate
Kukkaku and Ganju are part of the Shiba clan which was one of the 5 noble families. They might have been the ones doing this kind of transportation for them way back in the day, and I think that maybe Kukkaku doesn't associate Squad zero with the Gotei 13 so they wouldn't mind helping them out.
Because they are part of their owner's soul, a Zanpakutō cannot be replaced, though it will slowly regenerate if it is broken. The only thing which can heal a broken Zanpakutō is its own wielder's force of will, Reiatsu, and the time required to infuse the Zanpakutō with this Reiatsu. This only relates to one's Shikai, and can only be done if the hilt of the Zanpakutō remains intact. That is how byakuya is still alive. It's not hard to comprehend but people just don't wanna read and wanna complain about everything little thing. Not you guys, just some of these so called fans online who can't let it go after over a decade.
Ichigo's Dad used to be part of the Shiba clan. The Shiba clan is used to be a noble house. Y'all remember Kaen Shiba who Espada Aaoroniero was impersonating? He looks exactly like Ichigo but with black hair.
16:48 yeah, they left a looot of context and plot explanation out of the episode. I personally was expecting this ep to end with them arriving at the Royal Palace, so they could've included more context info. The ending comes out of nowhere.
Shunsui is gathering all the forces he can, and combining or allying himself with old enemies to face off against Quincies. A good Decision. And let me say this, Shunsui is going above and beyond to find allies.
Okay hi Mel and Belz hmm as someone who read the manga yes i think the info were given fast and it wasn’t precise that’s what i think but y’all really get a lot of info so good job guys.
In the back story of Visored two of the captains were missing Squad 12 which Kisuke replaced that lady and the Captain of Squad 10 they said he was presumed Dead
The whole bleach episodes, they took certain chapters to create a new episode because compared to the Manga and the anime are exactly the same as but has more information based on who are the names of the zero division, their powers, the history of the soul king, the royal palace and how this episode takes it to a whole new level. My theory is that from the Manga, the chapters that were shown in the anime are similar but the same.
As a note the next time As’nodt and Byakuya meet each other in battle, the former remarks how impressed he is Byakuya is walking up and about, with the lack of a stomach.
Ginjo, Tsukishima, and Giriko were all dead, but they were human/fullbringers. After they died, they apper in Soul Society, and now they are souls. Kukaku picked them up in Rukongai and training them.
I love this episode so much. It's pretty much confirmed that we will get CAN'T FEAR YOUR OWN WORLD anime after tybw is ended. (ginjo and tsuki showtime)
Ginjo and Tsukisima are dead... But remember that people who died in the Living World can go to Soul Society after their death. For example the dead kid (who became parakeet) that is always carried by Chad, he finally can meet again with Chad the first time Karakura Team arrived at Soul Society. And for the information about Shiba clan (and the relationship between Kukaku and Isshin), just please be patient until a few next episodes... Everything will be revealed
so about the xcution/fullbringers , they were former humans killed by shinigami i.e ichigo,byakuya,kenny . thus they got transported to the ss and ichigo saved grimmjow's life from nnoitora , if you remember ichigo slashed and put grimmjow down when nnoitora sidelined him and was going to finish him when ichigo intervened , after that we didnt see of him, but he didn't die
So much info this episode! Also I can't believe Byakuya is alive!
The reason why he is alive is because some crazy fans sent death threat at the creator sadly.
Really? WOW
9-10 should contain something big, brace for impact), though its the same with almost any other episode, new Bleach is concentrated acid of epicness.
@@natepogger2994 That’s just rumours. Byakuya also has a few important moments later in the arc

The anime actually cut out quite a bit of useful information in the conversation ichigo was having with mayuri. Mayuri explains more about broken bankai's especially regarding ikkaku, renji and komamura. Here's what Mayuri said

"I heard his bankai was destroyed in his battle with byuakuya?"
To which Mayuri responds
"Have you ever counted the individual sections of his bankai form? Those sections of Hihiou Zabimaru that were destroyed by Kuckiki Byakuya remain destroyed to this day"

22:18 Being half Soul Reaper & half Quincy is rare because Soul Reapers & Quincy’s are enemies. Remember Yamamoto had that whole war with them & killed a bunch of them lol. And throughout the show Uryu is pretty prideful about being a Quincy & brings it up multiple times that Quincy’s aren’t suppose to work with soul reapers & hollows.
Also quincies are just humans with powers that live in the world of the living, while soul reapers are essentially immortal so a relationship would be akin to a mortal man being with an elf from LOTR
@@aidskii8636 they are not just humans, mate.
@@archangelmichael3902 keep it secret, keep it safe
AMAZING reactions as always
7:41 Hey great memory! Not a lot of people remember that but in Turn Back the Pendulum they very briefly mention Captain Hikifune who was promoted to the Zero Squad and now they needed a new replacement for her. This pink haired chubby lady is her, she's Captain Hikifune. Good job.
Welcome back GRIMMJOW!!!
It always seem like Ari is actually paying attention to the discussion/breakdown when he guest stars, I love it lmao 😭🤣❤️
10:10 when dude said Unohana shouldn't be healing, he was implying that she should be bringing the smoke. Shes one of the OG savage killers along with Yamamoto.
Also, y’all were some of the few that hit the nail on the head of so many things in this episode. As a manga reader, It’s so interesting to watch people figure this stuff out.
Man I can’t wait for you guys to see the twists and reveals coming in the upcoming episodes. The mini arc “everything but the rain” coming up is a fantastic arc
So That"s why Kaien Shiba was so a like to Ichigo. They"re Blood related. Very interesting revelations!
It comes full circle. After this episode. Everything gets real.
Chill, as if things weren’t real before this episode fam 😭😭
@@ugobrown2357 about to take a whole nother level (I'm assuming you're anime only?)
@@HoloTWWOriginal Yea fam, this arc is outta control 😂
When Shunsui says they are stronger than the 13 divisions he means all 13 and all members not just the captains
My boy G is back!
My boi Grimjow is back.
I lost my shit finding out Kūkaku & Ganju are Ichigos cousins!!! Ganju my dawg 🤣 also I don't read manga so I also lost my shit seeing the fullbringers! It's as soon as Kūkaku said "make uncle sad" she immediately started to resemble Ichigo 🤣 Even Ganju look just like Isshin. Got me about to go back & watch OG bleach to see how much they look alike back then 🤣
24:20 They actually died as humans in normal world in 366 ep, and became souls in Soul Society so Kukkaku found them in one of the districts
I think the guy behind the curtain is our boy Grimmjow
You are right as a manga reader this info is something I expected but for ppl without reading the manga there is definitly a lot info and lore stuff. To add about Ginjo and Tsukushima they were humans who died by a Zanpaktou so they souls went to Soul Sociaty, and Kukaku says in the episode she found them in Rukon Disctrict
Soi Fon was asking to get a big hand slap from Ichibei. Literally.
Nice observation with the captain of hiyori from steph, hes keeping up!
ikr he's observation always on point 😂
The character with kisuke is knowable if you remember the voice and look carefully at their body :) he's also a fan favorite
I won’t say who but it’s very easy to tell who was behind the curtain when you see the hole and outfit and the combine that with the sword when they killed the Quincy with
We have been given sneak peeks way back to when Rukia was brought back by Byakuya and Renji about Ichigo's connection to Kaien, their similarities, Ukitake's reaction when he saw Ichigo. And Byakuya saying it's impossible to achieve Bankai so easily if he's a commoner, and here we are lol, knowibg Ichigo's from a previous noble clan
Grimmjow never died after the Ichigo fight he was alive n wanted to keep fighting but got sucker punched by the number 5 Espada
Correct that espada with Urahara is Grimmjow. As for the rest of the episode is best left at a mystery for the anime watchers.
seeing you guys reaction about byakuya being alive is priceless 😄
Shiba clan were said to be originally the ones to attain/discover bankai first, when it was during the soul society arc and ichigo was training for it is when it was said. That's why it was so natural for him to obtain., and that's why Byakuya was so surprised by the speed that he got it. Ichigo's father was the previous head of the Shiba clan house.
22:18 about this,this is not explained in the manga, but kubo was asked about something related to this (I won’t mention what specifically since it’s a spoiler) and he said that it is usually impossible for a shinigami and a human to have a child together, but urahara came up with a way to make it possible for ichigo’s dad/mom . That’s why there aren’t many people who are mixed shinigami and mixed something else
I haven't read the Manga but I don't know of you noticed that the eyes of the soul Kong are the same as aizen with hogyoku. That's because in the flash back from the arrancar ark that aizen took a little of the soul kings spiritual energy that was residing inside of Rangyku
those eyes are iris soul king has 4 iris and someone will get to his level just a bit below the iris plays a major role in showing what level and power the owner at that time have and can do shit with it
Yep. Squad Zero was mentioned once. It was in the past arc, where Urahara became the captain of squad 12, And Hiyori was the Lieutenant. It was said that the former Captain got
promoted to squad 0(The pink haired lady)
11:10 maan i was waiting for some surprise reaction thats grimjoww 6th espada
As you guys already figured out, yes that was grimmjow they show part of his torso so we could see his hollow hole in his abs and his scar in his chest the scar ichigo gave him with a getsuga tenshou
12:16 i saw in another reactor's comment section that because they were killed by zanpakto's they got sent to the soul society cause I was just as surprised as you too...now that I think about it, remember we were also told this by rukia in ep1 or 2 I think about cutting hollows with zanpakto's, I didn't think it would've worked on those guys but I guess it makes sense
The person in the curtain behind Inoue and Sado when Urahara was calling is Grimmjow, Espada #6 . The VA's voice is unmistakable and if you pay attention, you can see the hole below his abs.
Kukaki Shiba, the woman who transports Squad Zero out of the Sereitei was talking to Ginjo and Tsukishima; the two fullbring users killed by Ichigo and Byakuya in episode 365 & 366.
Back in the early Soul Society arc, Ichigo and Ganju the sand guy really had that strong dynamique from the first moment they met.
It was always funny banters between them. Often time going at each other's neck like real brother/cousin of the same age
Ichigo is truly something else. Dude is Shinigami, Vizard, Quincy and has royalty blood in him with being part of one the noble clans (Shiba).
That baby just staring at the end with his mouth open like “what is even happening right now” is the cutest fucking thing ever. Incredible
The anime pacing is the same as it's been thus far but these are chapters where Kubo introduced a lot of plot points in each chapter. It's a very fast-paced story structure it has right now.
And yes, this part of the manga did go by pretty fast. Granted there was some more comedy stuff with Kon, the talk about bankais, as well as some Tenjiro stuff. But yeah, this Episode in relation to the manga is pretty accurate
@StruckByBelz that person you only saw a sliver of was Grimmjow the arrancar with the blue hair who had the second form of a panther remember.
Kukkaku and Ganju are part of the Shiba clan which was one of the 5 noble families. They might have been the ones doing this kind of transportation for them way back in the day, and I think that maybe Kukkaku doesn't associate Squad zero with the Gotei 13 so they wouldn't mind helping them out.
I paused and laughed on camera when Komamura the Dog lost his right ear. I couldn't help it. I am editing mine right now.
tons of reveals in this episode, the next episode is going to be crazy with certain reveal
Is it regarding zaraki nd unhona?
What’s funny is y’all had the exact reaction everybody had to the zero division
Because they are part of their owner's soul, a Zanpakutō cannot be replaced, though it will slowly regenerate if it is broken.
The only thing which can heal a broken Zanpakutō is its own wielder's force of will, Reiatsu, and the time required to infuse the Zanpakutō with this Reiatsu. This only relates to one's Shikai, and can only be done if the hilt of the Zanpakutō remains intact.
That is how byakuya is still alive. It's not hard to comprehend but people just don't wanna read and wanna complain about everything little thing. Not you guys, just some of these so called fans online who can't let it go after over a decade.
Don't forget ichigo is also part hollow and fullbringer too so that literally makes him the rarest being in bleach that we know of
Ichigo gene is insane
Ichigo's Dad used to be part of the Shiba clan. The Shiba clan is used to be a noble house. Y'all remember Kaen Shiba who Espada Aaoroniero was impersonating? He looks exactly like Ichigo but with black hair.
Isshin*
Bleach spicy and hype even on the chill episodes
16:48 yeah, they left a looot of context and plot explanation out of the episode. I personally was expecting this ep to end with them arriving at the Royal Palace, so they could've included more context info. The ending comes out of nowhere.
The Soul King having 4 irises in each eye looks crazy in the anime
Shunsui is gathering all the forces he can, and combining or allying himself with old enemies to face off against Quincies. A good Decision. And let me say this, Shunsui is going above and beyond to find allies.
Okay hi Mel and Belz hmm as someone who read the manga yes i think the info were given fast and it wasn’t precise that’s what i think but y’all really get a lot of info so good job guys.
The Head Captain's body could not be found. That is hilarious. He was obliterated Vegeta style.
Now it's clear why Rukia thought Ichigo looks like Lt. SHIBA, because there direct cousins! That so cool!
the little one is so into dad its the cutest
10:40 true fan would instantly know who he is ! im dying inside hahaha (ofc i saw the end of the video ;) )
In the back story of Visored two of the captains were missing Squad 12 which Kisuke replaced that lady and the Captain of Squad 10 they said he was presumed Dead
The whole bleach episodes, they took certain chapters to create a new episode because compared to the Manga and the anime are exactly the same as but has more information based on who are the names of the zero division, their powers, the history of the soul king, the royal palace and how this episode takes it to a whole new level.
My theory is that from the Manga, the chapters that were shown in the anime are similar but the same.
11:49 arent there any seatbelts 😂😂😂
As a note the next time As’nodt and Byakuya meet each other in battle, the former remarks how impressed he is Byakuya is walking up and about, with the lack of a stomach.
8:00 bro has the memory of a god LMAO
Damn when the goofy Captain becomes the responsible one you know shit got serious.
my 5 favorite characters have made their appearance, squad zero!!
Ginjo, Tsukishima, and Giriko were all dead, but they were human/fullbringers. After they died, they apper in Soul Society, and now they are souls. Kukaku picked them up in Rukongai and training them.
I love this episode so much. It's pretty much confirmed that we will get CAN'T FEAR YOUR OWN WORLD anime after tybw is ended. (ginjo and tsuki showtime)
That uncle Kukaku mentioned is Kurosaki's dad Ishin former captain of squard 10
Ginjo and Tsukisima are dead... But remember that people who died in the Living World can go to Soul Society after their death. For example the dead kid (who became parakeet) that is always carried by Chad, he finally can meet again with Chad the first time Karakura Team arrived at Soul Society.
And for the information about Shiba clan (and the relationship between Kukaku and Isshin), just please be patient until a few next episodes... Everything will be revealed
10:46 pause the video, look at the stomach with hole and vertical scar and shout "Grimmjoooooowww my boy!!!!"
Shiba family used to be one of the 5 royal families, so it makes sense they have ties to squad zero
so about the xcution/fullbringers , they were former humans killed by shinigami i.e ichigo,byakuya,kenny . thus they got transported to the ss
and ichigo saved grimmjow's life from nnoitora , if you remember ichigo slashed and put grimmjow down when nnoitora sidelined him and was going to finish him when ichigo intervened , after that we didnt see of him, but he didn't die
